Nice to have a restaurant with bar, as well as a breakfast area. Hotel is dated. No updates in what seems like some time. Nothing stood out as fantastic or absolutely terrible. Room was dark, damp and other than a few cobwebs was clean. Also price was expensive for what it was. Average!

A good hotel like this requires an elevator. My Wife and I are Seniors thus it is tiring to climb stairs carrying luggage. We like the hotel and now know to book a first floor room when we next visit. The “No Elevator” comment was common at breakfast. This is a very good centrally located hotel with one major requirement. Thank you for listening.

Not worth the price , just ok.

Check went good and fast. The room is ok , for the price not too fantastic. The bed and furniture are old and dated. The bathroom needs a makeover. The fan in the bathroom grinds and the Ac is so loud when you are trying to sleep. The pool was good , but it is outside only pool. The free breakfast was ok for free , but definitely not worth paying for. Check out was quick. It was loud in the morning with people getting up.
